This time I already had most of the words and had fun making up the others.
=)
Mamqosian:
> Vocab:
>
> 1. bunny / rabbit
muhto - hare
mulle - young hare, bunny
I can't find a good book quickly, but I think hare would be the most likely
one to meet in Mamqos.
> 2. ferret
eittel - ermine (?), sometimes tamed to hunt rats
> 3. knife
kuuqi - knife used as a tool
tsaraci - a certain type of daggerlike weapon
> 4. alien / foreigner
boc - strange creature, monster
sarkjo - white donkey; light-haired person; foreigner. Not especially nice
connotations with the last meaning.
> 5. ouch! / ow!
jooi!
> 6. help!
I'll skip this for now, too difficult.
> 7. aaaa! (a scream of terror)
haaa! - ha is used for almost anything
> 8. aaaargh! (a scream of pain / failure / death)
jooi for pain, ajj for anything else unpleasant and/or surprising
> 9. grrrr! (an intimidating growl)
rawa!
> 10. blood
jiilu
> Context:
>
> 1. That bunny has a knife!
Tsaraciy här on muhto!
It "is holding" a knife.
> 2. This is my ferret. She likes to dance!
Mir ha eittelfary. Aivr jiolojy!
> 3. The bunny with the knife is coming for me!
Äymfayr mulle hära tsaraciy!
"Bunny that is holding a knife attacks me!"
> 4. Does that alien eat people or not?
Ñöñar boc on tejey?
"Or not" would be totally unnecessary here.
> 5. Ouch! The rabbit with the knife cut off my arm!
Jjooo-oi! Kyuwr haofary muhto tsaracirri!
It "skinned my arm with a knife"; it "skinned" my arm off me.
> 6. Help! I'm bleeding to death!
Rwsifar jiilujar!
"I might die without blood!"
The Mamqosian use of uncertain mood for future is becoming more and more
absurd all the time...
> 7. Aaaaa! The rabbit is coming back!
Haaa! Ayha uiqur muhto!
> 8. Aaaargh! It cut off my other arm!
Ajiii! Se'haofary kyuwr!
> 9. Grrrr! I will step on (crush / squish by foot) that rabbit!
Rrrawa! Rurwsifar muhtoy jelejrri jiitarri!
"...kill hare by walking on it."
> 10. The rabbit cut off my legs. Look at the pretty pools of blood.
Kyuwr muhto öiqaeefary. C'durwnar jiiluñdjäpauey neqwey.
"Blood brooks" here.
